Here's perhaps a quirky favorite: Robert Lucas, "Using Man Blues" on Audioquest -- engineered by Kavi Alexander. The LP is superb, but it will quickly reveal a system that is not "all together". On a system that gets the music right, this recording will sound superb. On systems that don't do the "PRAT" thing well, this recording will sound terrible. For me, its a quick way to tell 'em apart.
Your favorite blues album?
I would like to know what you think to be your favorite blues album. I have several compilations, some Big Joe Turner, and several Chicago local blues artists, but am looking for more. Please include why you like the album. I'm trying to expand my "Blues" horizons, and I know I have come to the right place. I look forward to your comments.
